Pocahontas

Aurora borealis
斑斕璀璨的北極光
The icy sky at night
凝結在冰冷的夜空
Paddles cut the water
在冗長而匆忙的航程中
In a long and hurried flight
船槳劃破海面
From the white man to the fields of green
自從殖民者來到了這片四季如春的土地
And the homeland we've never seen.
我們的家鄉面目全非
They killed us in our tepee
他們在帳篷中殘殺我們的同胞
And they cut our women down
不放過每一個手無寸鐵的女人
They might have left some babies
一些孩子也許能夠倖免於難
Cryin' on the ground
那些嚎啕大哭，悲嘆命運的孩子們
But the firesticks and the wagons come
但無數的槍支，貨車接踵而至
And the night falls on the setting sun.
殖民者的陰影，漆黑了天邊枯紅的夕陽
They massacred the buffalo
殖民者洗劫了整座水牛城
Kitty corner from the bank
橫渡過了河畔
The taxis run across my feet
出租車穿梭在我們從前挺立的土地
And my eyes have turned to blanks
我目光呆滯，痛苦充斥著我的心房
In my little box at the top of the stairs
於是，家中樓梯口旁的小盒子隨風而去了
With my Indian rug and a pipe to share.
裡面曾存放著我的印第安回憶
I wish I was a trapper
我希望我是個毛皮販子
I would give thousand pelts
寧願付出我所有珍藏的獸皮
To sleep with Pocahontas
去與印第安公主波卡·洪塔斯同度一晚
And find out how she felt
去看看她何思何想
In the mornin' on the fields of green
在晨霧瀰漫的四季如春的土地
In the homeland we've never seen.
我們面目全非的家鄉
And maybe Marlon Brando
也許馬龍白蘭度
Will be there by the fire
會在那裡生起一堆火
We'll sit and talk of Hollywood
我們能一起談談好萊塢
And the good things there for hire
談談那裡隨處可遇的時機
Like the Astrodome and the first tepee
彷彿那如今隨處可遇的天體圓頂，但消失殆盡的印第安帳篷
Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me
馬龍白蘭度？印第安公主和我？
Marlon Brando, Pocahontas and me
我們土地的繼承者，印第安人和我
Pocahontas.
和那些印第安人們...
